we are not talking about coding but computer science. computer science is a foundational skill. it is just as relevant to know how to dissect a frog as to dissect an app. maybe one out of 20 kids might actually go on to work as a software engineer, but everybody should know the basics of how the internet works and how logical works and planning. computer science teaches you how to break a large problem down to smaller parts. it teaches them how to think through action and consequence. that's something that every child should learn to do. if you want to grow up and become a lawyer or accountant or dentist or even the president, you should have a basic foundational understanding of computer science. it would be more valuable to your life today than some the other things we are teaching. >> i am worried about children who want to be accountants or dentists. i was on the playground with my little kid and a heard a boy say, as i was walked around with javascript for dummies, he was berating another kid. this was another high-performing school. it really may be wonder, what is -- it r

about the science advisory boards. and there is serious concern that the epa regulatory science has become somewhat of a closed loop the agency sets regulatory goals based on whatever motives those goals are based upon. then develops the funds and the science that it needs to justify those goals. the agency then creates its own regulations, and is solely responsible for interpreting those regulations. making matters even worse, the courts largely defer to the epa especially when questions involve the analysis of the science. therefore, the most critical requirement for america to trust this regulatory policy or system especially the regulations set forth by the epa is scientific integrity. unfortunately, as i say there are worries, and at least i seem to believe there seems to be serious reasons for being worried about it being a closed loop. it's not going give us the type of science we need. believe there are especially this is evident in -- you were discussing with my colleague from oregon. the independent peer revi
